Service Ambassador (Former Employee) – Tulsa, OK – February 16, 2019
It was a great work space and I loved going to work each day. The only issue was my manager he let me go after 9 months cause "it's just not working out" He then left the company his self a few weeks later. I would love to work there again.
Very hard to be promoted.
Storage Engineer (Current Employee) – Dearborn, MI – February 16, 2019
A place to retire, not to be promoted. Promotion criteria is more about networking than professional skills. Management doesn't know much about work.
Pros
Tons of days off
Cons
Very hard to be promoted
Challenging workd load requiring multitasking and time management
Regional Customer Service Manager (Former Employee) – Melbourne, FL – February 15, 2019
The Customer Service Manager was challenging but I enjoy multitasking so it kept things interesting on a daily basis. I enjoyed working with my dealer region. The job also provided and opportunity to learn about the technical side of parts and service which I also enjoyed.
Pros
Lunches, team lunches, pot lucks, dressing up for different occasions to keep the envorment fun.
Cons
case load could become excessive.
Currently a challenge
White Castle (Current Employee) – Dearborn, MI – February 15, 2019
Direction uncertain, vision without direction, cannot be all things to all people - first mile last mile, needs a mobility partner as they do not have the human nor financial capital to go it alone.
Could be great, might be a disaster. Need to lead and make decisions on markets and technology.

retired (Former Employee) – Dearborn, MI – February 13, 2019
People are the best part of the company. The family concept exists but it is a corporation. The work allows you to grow but always be careful with protocol and bringing up ideas at the right time and to who.
fast pace always learning something new
jim falk ford (Current Employee) – Kahului, HI – February 13, 2019
Some employees can be rude and not so polite to customers or workers. Also there is also much lack of communication between employees and others. Not such a fun work environment.

Did not enjoy my experience here
Car Saleperson (Former Employee) – Falls Church, VA – February 11, 2019
It was a man's world at the particular car dealership I worked at. The sharks were at the door constantly and I felt like because I was a woman they purposely put my desk at the back. I was hit on by several team members and was very uncomfortable working here. The amount of work I put in did not match the amount I made.
Pros
None
Cons
All the cons you can think of
Good company but not a good location to work Greenville -SC
Dealer Service Specialist (Former Employee) – Greenville, SC – February 11, 2019
The HR Manager and Director do not make discisions in the best interest of the employees. Morale is low, stress level is high and much due to lack of concern of the management team. They like to rotate you into positions you are not interested in working. If you decline working those jobs, you will be terminated. Never worked at a company like this before 👎
Pros
Good company
Cons
Bad location - Greenville SC
Very exciting place to learn and put your knowledge on practice

Vending Attendant (Current Employee) – Lima, OH – February 9, 2019
Regular hours, very little overtime. Mainly work alone, with very little assistance from management. Work on machines as much as possible and provide constant customer service.
Pros
Free lunch
Cons
Poor management
Great place to work if you are content staying put
Engineer (Current Employee) – Dearborn, MI – February 9, 2019
Ford is a secure to company to work for, however if you have aspiration for advancement it is exceedingly difficult to get noticed. If you have that go get em attitude, this company only rewards the few. Very biblical in the sense that many are called, few are chosen. There is less emphasis on hard skills and more on soft skills (after work activities, cronyism). You will find this at other companies, but it is widespread at this one. When you are out of the inner circle, you not only know it, you feel it. Now if you have no aspiration, and you just want a job with no autonomy (lots of rules and decisions being made at high levels) this is your place to work. Great for someone coming out of school that wants to learn. Great American company, but very adverse to risk (115 Years does not come easy)
Pros
Security
Cons
Advancement
Great culture
Product Owner / Program Manager (Current Employee) – Dearborn, MI – February 9, 2019

MP&L Process Coach (Supervisor) (Current Employee) – Louisville, KY – February 7, 2019
At this job you are always busy. People call in parts they need and it is your job to make sure they have them. This involve searching for parts and getting fork lift drivers to bring them to the line. You also have line feeders to help bring the smaller parts that are needed.
Pros
Team work environment

Some people don’t like working
